How do I hang a heavy oil painting?

Heavy oil paintings require secure fixings anchored directly into wall studs or masonry using appropriate picture hooks rated for the weight. Ensure the hanging wire or D-rings on the frame are structurally sound before mounting the piece at eye level.

Should I display paintings in direct sunlight?

Direct sunlight accelerates the fading of pigments and can cause canvas or paper supports to dry out and degrade over time. Position paintings away from south-facing windows or use UV-filtering glass to protect sensitive watercolours and oils.

How do I clean an antique frame?

Gently dust carved giltwood frames with a soft, dry brush to remove surface particles without disturbing the delicate gold leaf. Avoid using liquid cleaners or commercial polishes, which can strip historic finishes and damage the wood.

What is the difference between an oil and a watercolour?

Oils use pigment suspended in drying oil on canvas or board, allowing for thick impasto and deep, luminous colour layering. Watercolours use water-soluble pigments on paper, creating translucent, light-reflective compositions that require glass protection.
